Filming Locations in Thailand - Leamsing Beach Phuket

Laemsingh beach is 20 minutes north of Patong. The beach is not visible from the road but the small parking area is located about half way up the grade at the north end of Kamala Beach. (Look for the small handmade signs.

This is one of the undeveloped beaches frequently missed by visitors who are unaware of its location. Its a five minute walk down a fairly steep path to reach this remote little beach. The natural beauty of this beach is enhanced by the fact it sits well below the highway which lends a serene and quiet feeling that is not always present on other beaches in Phuket.

The interesting rock formations along Laem Sing Beach offer some the best snorkeling opportunities on the island. Noted during recent visits was an increase in the number of beach venders and the occasional sighting of jetski activity, but it is still a pleasant little beach get-a-way well worth going out of the way for.

Costs.

This beach is not a "National Park" and is therefore very competitively priced for filming.

Approximate conversions:

US$: 266.00

Euro: 200.00

Payment is to the local council upon application.

Note: Gear has to be carried down a narrow path to reach the beach, or bought in by boat. (See video below showing path).

Phuket Island is in Southern Thailand about 800KM from Bangkok (a 10 hour drive) so all filming equipment has to be transported from Bangkok. This means that you should allow "2 travelling days" when pricing equipment coming from Bangkok (Travelling days are usually @ 50% discount).

Laemsingh Beach (also known as Laem Singh beach) is located 1/2 way down the West coast of Phuket Island therefore receiving beautiful sunsets each evening.

The beach is in a sheltered cove with a narrow walking access track from the main road above the beach.
